A Fellow Citizen HOnored.

1t may not be generally known
that our fellow citizen. John q. A.
Kennedy, Esq, has been honored by
State nomination for State office.
But such is the fact, and therefore
we deem it duty to make it public.
ESQUIRE Kennedy is a modest man
and might never make it known him
self. In fact he did not know OF his
nomination until some days after it
was made. Tc be sure it is made
by party not yet very widely known
and not very strong in numbers
But it appears that when what is
known as the UnitedLaborPa Party ofthis
State lately met in State Convention
thev nominated for the Office of State
Treasurer one Henry l.. Bunker, oi
Holiday sburg, Blair Co. What
was the matter with Mr.. Bunker
that he did not serve, or was not per-
mitted to serve on the ticket as
nominee, we do not know. But ne
was dropped from his place in
some way, and the vacancy filled by
the placing of our fellow citizen
Squire Kennedy, on the ticket, to I'll
up the gap thus made by Mr.. Bunker
being taken off. We have fear tt
suspect that the party was looking
around for "millionaire," one who
they supposed would tap his private
"barrel'' literally for campaign expen
ses. But we don't think they will
catch the Squire in that line of busl
ness. He is very good man.-a
good citizen-has Jared well in oil
but he is not going to scatter arount
much in hopeless race for the State
Ire asury office. Were it not for tn
fact that the Republicans have very
good candidate for that office, in the
person of Captain Hart, some of the
Squire's neighbors might feel like Civ
ing him a complimentary" vote
But. "under the circumstances" the.
will not be able to do SO. He viii
however, we have no doubt, receiv
the full Labor party vote of this 20.
whatever that may be, more or less

A meeting Of Bankers would also
appear to first thought to be an M.

any one that they mean the safety of

Hoods Sarsaparilla is characterized by
three peculiarities 1st, the combination OF
remedial agents I'd, the proportion; Sd, the
process of securing the active medicinal
qualities. The result is medicine of unusual
strength, effecting cures hitherto unknown.

turned the tables on Memphis and paid
them back in their own coin with consider
able interest added Smith and Childs held

McKeough for Memphis The home
Smith was too much for the redoubtable
home run Andrews, who Iumor says has
been sold to Pittsburgh for $4,000, and who
went down four times striking out twice,
and getting out twice on pop flies. The
visitors got in one run in the second and
one in the sixth inning, which was all they
could do. The locals, on the other hand,
found Black at the beginning and pounded
him numerically. Charleston was again
subjected to the disadvantage of pitting its
pitchers against each other.
